MILWAUKEE — The Trump campaign on Wednesday said it would not commit to a date for a vice presidential debate, suggesting it was still uncertain who would be on the Democratic ticket.
“We don’t know who the Democrat nominee for Vice President is going to be, so we can’t lock in a date before their convention,” senior Trump campaign adviser Brian Hughes said in a statement. “To do so would be unfair to Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker, Gretchen Whitmer, or whoever Kamala Harris picks as her running mate.”

…. the Trump campaign is seizing on the hand-wringing among Democrats about whether President Biden should step aside as the nominee, to punt on a potential debate this summer.

Dumb. I’d commit. It’s harder for them to switch things up if everything is already scheduled.

Smart. Keep your powder dry. No screen time for Kamala.

They are just saying that for comedic effect. Sure they are completely confident that Vance would beat Harris.
To: hole_n_one
That’s great. But the VP debate should be moderated by Tucker Carlson or Joe Rogan.

Lol! They don’t even know who their ticket is but we do
To: hole_n_one
Its true why should they commit to a debate until they are sure that Kamala is the VP, so this is a good move
To: pghbjugop
Right but if the VP debates are scheduled/have taken place it will be a whole lot harder to replace the ticket.

“But the VP debate should be moderated by Tucker Carlson or Joe Rogan.”
Exactly!
I am so sick of these debates being “moderated” by people from NBC or NPR, etc.
I’m just as sick as our side agreeing to the “moderators”.
It’s high time we had someone like Dennis Prager, etc moderate these debates!

If they replace Biden, gotta chant “Democratic Party is a threat to democracy!” 😂
